Lim T.K., . and Kamaruzaman Sijam, . A rot of detached durian fruits caused by Sclerotium rolfsii. pp. 11-14. ISSN 0126-6128
Abstract
A new fruit rot of fallen durian fruits was observed in the Universiti Pertanian Malaysia fruit orchard in Serdang Selangor during the fruit ripening month of October 1988. The rot was characterized by a dense white fan-shaped mat of coarse mycelial strands of the causal fungus growing on a water-soaked brown necrotic patch on the fruit in contact with decaying weed vegetation on the ground. The causal organism was identified as Sclerotium rolfsii. Presence of a thick weed undergrowth and its decaying leaf debris and warm moist conditions were shown to be important predisposing factors conducive to the development of the rot.
